Could shaking the mouse (moving left > right > left) be a option before activating/displaying playback controls?

The Problem
I have a keyboard whit a trackball that sometimes very slowly moves the mouse pointer.

If that happens during playback the control options gets displayed, covering part of the movie, and all of the subs.

The Solution
Only activate the playback menu after making a shaking gesture, so accidental activation can be avoided, when watching a video.

I like it, sounds like a nice option. Not sure how well we support gestures like this but sounds like something which could possibly be used for other things also, e.g. shake to activate info and such.

Patches most welcomed. While javascript I've had good good experience with http://hammerjs.github.io/ which might be worth while to be inspired by with the code.
